Can we encourage anyone to develop self control in order to minimize gambling?

[nicolecan13]

That's not impossible to encourage anyone to have develop self control and in fact self control is in your nature as a person. Well having more worst experiences of losing in gambling could probably make you realize in along run that maybe you need to have it. One way of encouraging a friend or any person who you happen to know is divert him with any sports activities and other pleasurable things in order to shortened his time priorities which affects hus gambling schedules in any time of the day.

I think you can remedy his situation by introducing him to winnable betting stratagies like Arbitage betting where he will win no matter the outcome. If he's introduced into spotting loopholes in the odds of different bookmakers he will spend his time on this until you gradually get his appetite off betting.

Gambler who addicted can encourage, but need a people/person who oversee, at once become a tutor, means a people/person who can control such a gambler who addicted to follow the instructions or even force him/her(gambler who addicted).

I think the activity is not just sports, it can be anything which he/she likes and can distract from gambling activity, make him/her stay away from any gambling equipment and even erase he/she gambling account.

Yes it is possible, that a smart idea and good as well. Having a self control was a good factor if all gambler will gonna be like that. Surely, losing in gambling be maximize anyhow.

With hard work and a lot of support we can get over anything I believe any kind of addiction can be treated but you need to k ow how and you need help. Gambling is one of the more addictive things and some people get top addicted and don't stop when they won but rather carry on until they have nothing. One way to stop is bring a friend to gamble with you and agree on a number and only bet that much however you like.

Professional help and support from friends and family can prove invaluable to an addict and is almost always needed and very much recommended. Remember control your bankroll and know when to stop though that is easier said then done.

I don't understand what we are discussing over here. Correct me if I am wrong, is the topic about teaching addicted gamblers self-control? If that is the case then we can teach anyone this, but it is really up to the person if he wants to learn and apply it. A stranger has no influence over anyone who has a gambling addiction or any addiction for that matter.

The only way to gain real self control in gambling is by employing and learning proper bankroll management.

If you don't make decisions using emotion, but rather by logic, you are less likely to make ill informed decisions.

[FlightyPouch]

Gaining self control may be a good idea to stop the addiction on gambling, though the problem is, it is hard to gain self control alone, you must have someone looking over you, maybe someone you know, or loves you, or maybe if you are rich you can hire someone.

[maydna]

self control is the hardest thing that we can do especially if we are a gamblers because in every winning we have a will to be a winner in every time we gamble which is impossible and we have a greed inside ourself that we should avoid. we know that doing self control is good for us but we are not take serious about this so we continue playing gambling. we can help someone to develop his self control in gambling but its depend on how serious that person to control his self and we can not push him to do what we want but what we can do is we can stay beside him, giving a support to him to control his self especially his emotions and i am sure, that person can control his self.

[cramcram21]

Yeah that is actually how I control my self and how I quit on gambling,
They just need to be busy and distracted so they wouldn't think of gambling

Unless we are talking about a child you are raising or you are a therapist then I think the answer to that is no, since self control must come from within the person, a gambler may restrict himself when he is with you but as soon as you are not around he will gamble as usual.

Are you sure he will gamble again? If a person have self control he will have self limitation on what he is doing not just gambling, but most of those things that has a part of his life. One way to encourage them having self control is to divert his priorities like inviting him to other profit gaining investments like doing business.

The person could possibly gamble if he can't control himself unless they took away all of his money so he can't gamble again. Also looking at your last sentence sounds like you just repeated what op had said.

According to me it's impossible to encourage anyone in order to Leave Gambling Because No one Can Change anyone to leave Gambling Because Gambling is a Addiction So If Someone Addicted to Gambling then the Person is Only Able to Leave Gambling Itself only......

[neochiny]

It's good to, once in a while, remind someone we care about. Sometimes, just a word or two coming from someone who cares about us would help.

But, come on. Don't be so weak, to the point where someone has to stop or remind you to control your gambling.
Never let your gambling be destructive, to you or your family. It's got to start with you. Do not depend on others to stop your own destructive behavior. If you decide to gamble, then you better make sure you can stop.

It will always be a possible thing to encourage anyone to help an addicted gambler to develop self control.

It's for real but I don't understand addicted gamblers because they are thinking about recovering their losses.

I find a way to encourage them to quit, make a challenge to him and tell that if he is able to make the challenge which is not gambling for a month or two, then you will give him a reward.

that's only the way I think it is giving them a reward that they can't get in gambling , or challenging them in a way they really want for them.it is really hard.to  encourage people who doesn't want to here things from others and just want to rely on themselves.

Self realization is the first step you have take for encouraging people to develop. You have to actually first make him realize that he is addicted to gambling. He might be in the state of denial though. Then comes the rest of the part. Divert him through different ways. Make him create a new hobby for himself which he can spend his time at during his leisure time.

It's not easy to ask someone and encourage them in quitting. But if you will give them some reward, I guess they will pursue and beat your challenge that way and also another thing is that you are encouraging them to quit. So it will be a win-win situation for both of you and at the same time you helped them to quit.

bounty system won't possibly not work since theirs a big possibilities that if the bounty rewards will end gamblers will cameback to play their old games. And i think the best thing we can do is to advice those gamblers to minimize their game and tell them how worst it would came when they wouldn't stop their bad tantrums. Although our advices will not work but surely they will realize in the end of the game that our sweet talks at them is truly nice for their sake.
